Systematic Screening for Tuberculosis Using Molecular Testing on Stool Samples in Acutely Malnourished Children: A Pilot Implementation Study in a High-Burden Drug-Resistant Tuberculosis Country.

Systematic screening of tuberculosis (TB) using molecular testing on stool samples detected TB in 5.2% of acutely malnourished children, including cases without evident clinical symptoms. This screening strategy could enhance TB diagnosis and facilitate prompt treatment initiation in this population.

A Systematic Review of Deep Inspiration Breath Hold and Free Breathing in Proton Beam Therapy Plans for Breast Cancer Radiotherapy.

Aims: To conduct a systematic review of breast cancer radiotherapy studies reporting a comparison of proton beam therapy (PBT) in deep inspiration breath hold (DIBH) and in free breathing (FB).

Methods And Materials: Studies comparing DIBH and FB proton beam therapy plans, in the same patient, published between 2015 and 2023 were included. Doses to organs at risk were compared between DIBH and FB plans.

Empowering cancer research in Europe: the EUCAIM cancer imaging infrastructure.

Artificial intelligence (AI) is a powerful technology with the potential to disrupt cancer detection, diagnosis and treatment. However, the development of new AI algorithms requires access to large and complex real-world datasets. Although such datasets are constantly being generated, access to them is limited by data fragmentation across numerous repositories and sites, heterogeneity, lack of annotations, and potential privacy issues.
